I am assuming David is the owner or manager.\n\nI am also assuming that John T. is rating Hibachi Sushi Buffet on the price alone. I WILL ADDRESS THE PRICE AFTER MY REVIEW.\n\nI gave them a 4 star because of service. The place is friendly and go the extra mile to please you. The place is also very clean, as in spotless. The food is 3 or maybe 3.5 star. \n\nThere are four parts to this buffet.\n\n1. Sushi\n2. Chinese buffet\n3. Hibachi\n4. Dessert\n\nThe Sushi is a solid 3.5 or 4. The Maki rolls were decent. Typical basic rolls. Nothing really custom or special. Generous portions of fish. I would have liked to ask the sushi chef to prepare me a custom roll, but I just did not have time. Plus, no clue if they make special requests.....The Sashimi was to die for, 5 star all the way. Fresh and tasty. White fish, yellow tail, salmon, etc. Just excellent! I wish they had more Unagi out, eat more Unagi, mmmmmm!!!! hint hint\n\nThe traditional Chinese buffet is your standard buffet. The crab legs are okay, I tried them was not that impressed. But I want to state that the raw oysters rocked both my wife and me. I was shocked!!! The oysters were some of the biggest I have ever had! They easily compare with Rusty Rudder or Vinnies at the Lake. Tasty good. The soups were very good. The lobster shrimp were outstanding! They had a great salad bar with some very cool and interesting dishes, like KimChi and Calamari Veg mixed.... Salad bar was all fresh veggies with a good assortment of dressings.\n\nThe Hibachi was pretty darn good with all the meat looking very fresh. Standard stuff. \n\nDessert bar had ice cream, cakes and fruit. The fruit was all fresh and tasty.\n\nOkay PRICE. David it is over priced. Period. End of story. My wife and I dropped $50 on dinner for two. Now, the true Connoisseur of sushi will opt to go to the four other sushi joints on Catawba Ave. For $50 you can get a better sushi meal, not as much sushi or not a buffet, but higher quality sushi. I get that Hibachi Sushi Buffet is in the Lake Norman area and can get a higher price, but for the average buffet guest, the price is more in the $9.95 -$12.95 range. I agree that the price should be with or without crab legs, because not everyone likes crab legs or the effort it takes to eat them. Furthermore, there is no way that a family of four or five can afford to eat there. \n\nI see that Hibachi Sushi Buffet is doing all the right things to attract cusotmers.... Mailer coupons, yelp coupon, good deal! I truly hope that this buffet stays around, it is so close to our house. But I am willing to sacrifice my time and gas money to drive the distance into Charlotte, Pineville, even Concord to visit buffet that are not as expensive, especially when I am taking my 10, 12, 13 year old children."^^ .
